1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:08,180 Lease lines are an example of synchronous serial communication, where one party provides the clocking 2 00:00:08,180 --> 00:00:09,800 for the communication. 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:15,620 So in other words, two devices will synchronize their clocks before data transmission takes place. 4 00:00:15,620 --> 00:00:23,330 So they will align or synchronize those clocks and agree on parameters for data transfer, including 5 00:00:23,330 --> 00:00:26,090 the data interval between bits of data. 6 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:34,240 The CSU issue or channel service unit data service unit, commonly referred to as the CSU, provides 7 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,290 the clocking and is the master for the communication. 8 00:00:38,500 --> 00:00:44,410 The rate is acting as a slave and is receiving its clocking from the CSU. 9 00:00:44,770 --> 00:00:52,720 So essentially before communication can start, the two devices have to align their clocks or agree 10 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,950 on the clock intervals to ensure that data doesn't get corrupted. 11 00:00:56,980 --> 00:01:05,080 So here we have the terms data, communication equipment or DCE and data terminal equipment or DTD. 12 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:12,220 The most in the communication is the CSU DSU and it's using its own internal clocking. 13 00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:19,690 But the rudder, which is the data terminal equipment or dty, uses the external clocking received from 14 00:01:19,690 --> 00:01:25,300 the DCE and will thus synchronize itself to the CSU DSU. 15 00:01:25,690 --> 00:01:35,350 So the CSU DSU is the DCI side of the connection and the router is the dty side of the connection. 16 00:01:35,710 --> 00:01:45,040 So the DCI, which is the CSU DSU is providing clocking to the rudder, which is the DTY, and the DCE 17 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:54,100 also terminates the connection from the carrier, and a connection is then made from the CSU DSU to 18 00:01:54,100 --> 00:01:54,790 the router. 19 00:01:55,570 --> 00:02:00,820 Some terms to understand, therefore, is customer premises, equipment or CPE. 20 00:02:00,970 --> 00:02:08,470 This is the term that telcos or service providers use to refer to equipment that resides at the customer 21 00:02:08,470 --> 00:02:10,780 site at the end of their connection. 22 00:02:11,350 --> 00:02:16,270 So once again, in this example, the CE issued issue is at the customer's site. 23 00:02:16,630 --> 00:02:23,890 The key issue, DSU, which is the DCC, is connected in this example via a V 35 cable to the router 24 00:02:23,890 --> 00:02:26,440 and is providing clocking to the router. 25 00:02:26,890 --> 00:02:35,740 So the CSU issue, which is the DCC physically controls the speed and timing at which the router serial 26 00:02:35,740 --> 00:02:40,120 interfaces can send and receive bits over the serial cable. 27 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:49,000 You don't have the ability to configure the speed of your serial connection that is set by the CSU DSU 28 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,080 and is generally set by the service provider on your behalf. 29 00:02:53,380 --> 00:02:57,700 The serial cable once again connects the CSU to the router interface.
